Aaron Cake has decribed the proper way to run a can/vent system over and over again. Search, you'll find it.

The stock setup has the top nipple, running to a t, with one line going to the tid (should be the tid and not the afm?), and the other line going to one way check valve or pcv and continuing to the intake manifold for vacuum pressure. Bottom nipple near housing, goes to stock canister or catch can.
